Will is a lot like Lupin and Giles. Well that's how I imagined him. He and will Hermione will have this whole farther- daughter relationship. Hermione will visit the Scooby gang, but that's later on. She is gunna get the whole slayer attitude thing, and is gunna end up being a bit like Buffy. She is still going to be the same know it all Hermione but not as bright as she dun't have time to focus as much on schoolwork. In fact she'll only be as smart as she was before, like Ron and Harry, except brainier. If that makes sense. She is going to be very pretty because she is growing up and all. There will be another character, but that's a secret. There will be one main mission, like in Buffy, where it kinda builds up to the big bad in the end. There will be romance between some characters. I have decided that only one person is going to find out, there might be another.if you have got any ideas, u can send them 2 me.
Ok now to the story.

Chapter 9
All Hermione could see was black everywhere. She could not open her eyes, she could not move, she couldn't breath properly. She felt some thing hit her, and then grab her arm, it had a strong grip. Hermione couldn't take it anymore, she willed herself to move. She kept on. Nothing. She began to drift into a silent sleep. Where she was comfortable.
The thought only just entered her head, she was the slayer. She had to wake up and fight. She slowly opened her eyes. Then she saw it. The vamp that had attacked Will, who was now lying on the floor battered and bruised. He looked at Hermione. Hermione then looked back to the vampire, who had one hand on her arm and the other on her throat. He then took his hand of her arm and let it drop to his side.
Hermione did not like the feel of his flesh. It was cold and bumpy. Hermione now choking tried to get his hands away from her throat. She could not. Her cross had no affect as it had swung to the back of her neck. Instead Hermione kicked him in the stomach. She fell to the ground, the vampire bent over holding his stomach. Hermione looked over to Will, who was trying to move.Pulling her stake out of her pocket, she looked to the vampire, who had recovered and was aiming a kick at her hand, which hit it and resulted in Hermione losing the stake.
She had missed her chance. She had to fight. The vampire hit her across the face. Hermione stumbled sideways a bit, but then regained her balance, then blocked the second swipe the vampire threw at her. Hermione then blocked the other arm the vamp was throwing in her direction. Quickly with her right arm she backhanded the vampires face. She lifted her leg into a spinning kick and knocked him to the ground. The vamp now taking advantage of the fact the he was on the ground lifted himself slightly, then kicked her ankles pulling her to the ground. As the vampire got up, Hermione, who was on her back, lifted her legs then jumped up onto her feet. Quickly she kicked straight forward and hit the vampire's chest, pushing him back into a head stone. He banged his head, but did not seem too badly hurt, as he leapt at Hermione. She ducked, and then drove her fist into his back. He fell to the ground, near to Hermiones stake. She back flipped over the vampire, with her legs apart in mid air, allowing her to land neatly and safely. She grabbed the stake then stabbed it through the heart of the vampire. He dusted.
Hermione put the stake in her pocket, then rushed over to Will. " Oh my god, are you ok?" Hermione asked desperately.
" I think so." Will replied, " I hurt my back when he dropped me, but nothings broken." Hermione helped him up.
" So what do you think of my first fight?" Hermione asked cheerfully, while pulling her cross back to the front of her neck.
" That was very impressive. Not many slayers could stake a vamp through the heart on their first go. You were great." Hermione proudly and triumphantly walked Will to his hotel. " So anyway what's the deal with the village?" Will looked around.
" Well after 5 killings people got scared and hid. It's human nature." He replied.
" You obviously haven't met Harry then." Hermione laughed as she walked off into the night.
As she walked off, Will smiled triumphantly too. His slayer had killed her first vamp, which was more than another slayer could handle on their first staking. After she disappeared, he crawled back up to his room. Hermione could feel Will watch her as she disappeared. She was very proud, and ran back to the Burrow.
Three days later- the Burrow
" Wake up Hermione, its time to get up. We are late, we have to be at Platform 9 ¾ in 3 hours." Hermione looked up to see Ginny staring right at her. Hermione dragged herself out of bed then got dressed. " Hermione what have you been doing? You have been sleeping in since the night you had sleep walked into the garden." Ginny asked a sleepy Hermione. This was the excuse Hermione had used for having all the mud on her clothes, and been caught on her way back into the garden. ' Some excuse' Hermione thought too herself.
Hermione had already packed her clothes and school stuff the day before. So she was in no hurry. While every one else was running about the house in search of last minute objects, Hermione just sat down at the breakfast table and ate her cereal. When the cabs arrived all the luggage was packed up, into the 3 separate cars. Mr and Mrs Weasley in one, Fred, George and Ginny in the other and Hermione, Ron and Harry in the last. While in the car, Harry, Ron and Hermione sat in silence. Ron who hated silence broke it. " So Mione, how did you get that bruise on your cheek?" Hermione looked nervous.
" I told you. When I was sleep walking I must have fallen." Ron seemed to accept her answer so continued to babble about anything and everything. Hermione hated having to lie to her friends. It was the only way to keep them and her safe. Will had told her that she was not to get too close to anybody new, only her friends. She needed to act normally. Have a normal life by day. That's the least he could of expected of her.
Since becoming the slayer, Hermione had noticed that she had developed more; as if it had kick started her hormones. Even Fred and George had noticed the change in her appearance, and had both commented on how beautiful she looked. Hermione laughed at the though of the reaction of Angelina and Alicia.
" Hermione...hello earth to you." Hermione snapped her head round to see Harry staring at her, and Ron waving slowly at her like she was completely stupid.
" What is it? Will you please stop doing that Ron? It's very annoying" Harry and Ron looked at each other.
" All I wanted to know is what you think about Harry and me do extra defence against the dark arts, defence things. You know to defend our selves against Voldemort", Hermione agreed then continued to think to herself.
The rest of the journey was spent listening to Harry and Ron talk about their plans to defeat evil. Hermione was smiling too herself, as she knew that now she was going to defeat evil, and was no longer just the know it all smart girl.
Platform 9 ¾
Once they had arrived at Kings Cross station, there was only 20 minutes to go until the train would set off. They had all rushed through the barrier, loaded their stuff then gone to find spare cabins.
Harry, Ron, Ginny, Fred and George all sat together, there was no room for Hermione. Hermione not wanting to spoil their fun told them that she was going to find Lavender and Pravati, so she went, not really all that bothered for now, to find another cabin. She was now at the end and so far had found no spare cabins. She was about to give up when she found the last one completely empty. The students had been allowed to take one bag onto the train; Hermione had taken her bag full of weapons. Before she sat down she dumped it on the top shelf above her head. Now depressed and lonely she sat down. Lately she had done a lot of thinking. This time she thought of Will, and how she had not seen him since the night she had staked that vamp.
Hearing footsteps coming towards her cabin, she turned her head. Who other than Draco Malfoy. " Malfoy, can I help you?" Hermione asked politely. She was actually surprised that he was alone.
" No" He rudely replied. "There are no other seats. I was told to come here, because I was causing trouble with your friend Potter, and the Weasleys. So it looks like you've got me for company for the rest of the journey Mud blood."
Hermione hated being called that, but she had gotten used to it by now, so just ignored him. Well she tried. " So how was your summer, not that I care or anything" Hermione asked not showing any interest.
" It's nothing to do with you...but since you don't want to know, I'll tell you." Hermione knew this would happen.
After hearing about Draco's summer, which was too boring to of happened, she turned back to look out of the window. Draco couldn't help but feel sorry for Hermione. Although he hated her, he did feel sorry for her. He could see that she was upset, probably about being outcast from the others, and that she was hurt.
" So what's wrong with you Granger?" He asked. It had obviously worked when Hermione faced him.
" Are you feeling ok today Malfoy" He looked up, gave her an evil look.
" I may hate you, but I can still be nice to you." Hermione was confused, but she began to feel grateful for Malfoy's company, although she hated him too, he took her mind of things.
" Well since you're so keen to know, I'm fine", She replied sternly.
" You don't look it." Draco shot back.
" Who are you to tell me how I am?" Hermione snapped at him.
" My point exactly" Draco snapped back. They both stared at each other, with out blinking. They spent most of the journey just staring at each other suspiciously, and arguing over anything that went wrong.
" Time to change into your Hogwarts robes" declared a lady, who Hermione remembered had been on cart duty the past 4 years. She had come into the cabin, and yelled at the top of her voice. Draco and Hermione looked at each other worriedly. The lady noticed the situation and laughed. They both stared at her, with a disgusted look on their faces. Noticing the looks she was getting she left. Draco and Hermione looked awkwardly at each other.
" Ermm...Well turn around when I get dressed ok" Hermione dictated. Draco had the same snide look on his face.
" I'm a gentlemen" While saying this he turned round.
Hermione had only on her skirt and socks, with the exception of her underwear. Draco was getting bored facing the wall so he turned to look out of the window. Just as he did this the lights on the train went off. The train suddenly stopped, throwing it's occupants around. Because it was night outside it was pitch black inside causing Hermione to fall, luckily she landed on something that broke her fall. Draco also fell, but a bag landed on him, preventing him from getting up. They both heard footsteps and cabin doors opening. Then silence, the air went cold, Hermione couldn't move. If was as if the train was dead. Hermione heard something walking down the row of cabins, stop, then continue to walk as if it was looking for something, or some one.
" Don't panic please, it is just an inspection of the train." A male voice bellowed. Hermione did not believe it, she was going to investigate. The lights came back on only temporarily. Suddenly she looked down to see what had broken her fall.
" Draco!" both parties were shocked " Ermm...I'm sorry I didn't know it was you I fell on, I would of gotten up if I..." She trailed off, Draco sported a smirk, which Hermione wanted to wipe off his face.
The footsteps were nearing. Both Draco and Hermione got up and looked at the floor nervously. Hermione grabbed her shirt, put on her tie, then looked to Draco. " Listen Draco.I'm going to investigate, cover for me will you? And before you say anything, I know you don't like me but please, I'm begging you." Draco found it amusing to see Hermione begging him for his help with a top she was busting out of, and a skirt the size of a belt, but the circumstances were suspicious, and if anybody could find what was happening, it was Hermione.
" OK then, but you owe me mud blood." Hermione smiled, just as the lights went off again. Seizing the chance, she grabbed her weapons bag, took out a few stakes, tucked a dagger into her boots, then she crept out of the cabin, silently, then through the door at the end of the train. It was cold outside. Hermione was still shocked that Draco would help her, but began to climb the ladders to the top of the train.
In the train
Draco was wondering what he was going to say when the figures entered this cabin. Suddenly he had no time to think. The figures were in this cabin. Although he could not see them, he could hear them as they opened the door. Draco was getting ready to cover, when they left.
Wondering what was going on, he decided to wait for Granger to come back. He did not notice the bag above the seat at which he was now sat, filled with weapons. He was too busy worrying about how dead Granger was. Suddenly the train, still without light, began to move. Confused, he looked out of the window, trying to catch a glimpse of whatever it was.
Hermione was now on the roof of the train, when it started moving. ' Oh god just my luck. I guess they left' she though too herself. As she started for the steps, she saw a pair of hands grab the top of the train. Her acute eyesight allowed her to see that one finger was missing. Slowly she backed away from the steps, then turned and looked straight ahead. She had never noticed how big the train was. There were at least 16 sections. Suddenly she was pushed forward; she rolled onto her back to see that two of the things she had heard before on the train were already up onto the top. She kicked one as it approached her; it stumbled back into the other. Quickly she lifted her legs, and then spun them, allowing her to jump up onto her feet, without using her hands.
As she looked at the face of, what looked like a demon that had a serious saliva control problem, she saw a mark burned into his forehead. The one that she had kicked, now jumped into a kick, but Hermione ducked it, then kicked his shine knocking him onto the track. As it rolled off, it slashed he arm with her dagger, which he had pulled out of her sock.
The other now looked to the slaver guy on the tracks to Hermione. It charged forward. Hermione moved out of the way, then elbowed him in the back knocking him down. By this point, Hermione had thrown a ' Slaver' guy over. Knocked one out, and three others came over the top. They looked at their companion, and then began to growl. Hermione realising that she could not fight all four at once, ran up the train. The four chased her.
As she approached the gap between her section and the next, she leapt over it and landed next to a ladder. Grabbing and snapping the ladder, she was going to use a long section, of the ladder she had snapped, which had a point on the end to fight with. As the four 'slaver' guys approached she held out her stick. " Yo over here Slaver guys" As she said this she stuck the point of the stick into the arm of the first attacker. Yanking it out, she pulled it straight back into the stomach of another. The third walked up to her. She cartwheeled, into a back flip, kicking its chin up, and knocking off the head. Clutching the stick she had taken from the stomach of the second, she knocked the last thing and the one with the injured arm over the side. Then rolled the second off.
As she looked over the side, she saw them all get up, slowly. As she looked ahead, she saw the faint glimmer of lights. " Oh shit", She exclaimed, she ran back to the end of the train, which made hr very dizzy. She then got to the end, on top of her cabin. She climbed back down then ran in through the train door then into her cabin.
As she got in she saw Draco sitting down looking worried. " Malfoy, are you ok? Did anything happen?" he looked up to see Hermione out of breath and covered in blood.
" I think the question is are you ok" He looked from her, too her arm. " Oh that.I cut myself with a piece of wire, near the 5th cart." He seemed convinced.
" So what did you find out? Anything" Draco asked innocently, and half interested.
" Well not much, just that a bunch of uglies, were checking out the train." She said sarcastically. Draco just gave her a strange look.HE had already gotten dressed, Hermione only had to slip on her robes. She did so just in time. The train began to slow down.
" Malfoy, I would just like to say thanks for your company. I mean...I no you hate me and that you didn't stay on your own accord, but, it really meant a lot to me that you actually spoke to me, and tried to show some concern." Hermione had meant everything she had said. She not only surprised herself, but Draco. He stood there dumb struck.
" Ermm...no problem, but I do still hate you mud blood" He replied, not actually meaning the last part.
As they got off the train, she gave him a quick hug then ran off. After realising that she could die any minute, she felt she had to be nice to people while she was still alive. She had also been really grateful for his company, but she still disliked him, a lot.
